In the Lakers game last night, Ricky Rubio was injured late in the game, and it appears that the injury is an ACL tear. Rubio's season is over, and that doesn't bode well for the Timberwolves. The Spaniard has been an important member of the team this season. While he doesn't score a ton of points, he's an assist machine and a great defensive player. The good thing for the Timberwolves is that someone usually steps up to fill the gaps, but this might be a fatal blow. For the first time in years, the T-Wolves are in playoff contention, and it's unclear if they'll make it now.
Sadly, this has been the best season for Timberwolves' fans in years, and it's just not going to be the same now. Rubio should make a full recovery and be back next year.
